Tropical spider burrowed into appendix scar and lived there for THREE DAYS

The 21-year-old Aussie was abroad with friends when he discovered the strange red trail stretching two inches across his stomach.

Dylan Thomas was told by doctors that he was suffering from an allergic reaction to an insect bite but three days later, when the red mark began to blister, and almost double in length, Dylan knew there was something wrong.

Medics were shocked to discover that a tropical spider was burrowing just below the surface of his skin into the scar from his recent appendix removal.
